Easy.

Drag and drop ID8ResChange into your ID8 folder.

Open the program and change resolution, If you have problems with this one, use the old changer above.

I prefer it myself.

With Initial D8 Arcade Stage Infinity, TeknoParrot will open two DOS boxes, one to start the game.

 

And one for picodeamon to generate a response key for the game.

 

If you get a red error box which has Japanese text and the word IC in it, press change view to skip the error.

 

Do not forget to set you network settings correctly in Teknoparrot. (per game). 

 

IP Address, DNS, Gateway , et cetera.

Windows key+ R, cmd, ipconfig /all

 

Start the game, enjoy.

I hope that this tutorial helps other people out.

It takes you a few moments to read, but it took me all night to figure it out.

When you get the game working, thanks to this "manual", please give a thanks at this post.

 

And a BIG thanks for the people who originally uploaded the games, we all can enjoy (if you do it right) !!!

And of course all the people involved in, the game loaders and JVS I/O emulation applications we use, and all the people I "forgot".

 

Also look at the posts below, some members / people add helpful information, thank them also .....

You will need version 1.8 or you can try with JDownloader

[Invité Jayinem]

I get all the way to start game after all the menus, then spinning circle/crash. (same thing on several tries) Initial D 6 and 7 working no problem. 

 

Just to make sure I reinstalled everything needed for my computer in the first post, and they were already installed so I don't know why crash. My computer specs are not the issue either.

Haven't done anything yet after following patch updates from the Instruction page which can be found here.

 

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1MAOu2EncS5cCQRF4rDe6AzHXlbr0RDdIcy9E48PY7vI/mobilebasic

 

But why did it take forever to load this game? The screen stuck here, no graphical movement after all.

Sorry for the messy image, but these are my PC specs. Before, I have a MSI GT 730 connected, but still getting the same issue.

 

Never have this problem when playing WMMT5, even with Radeon R7 graphics or GT 730, the game is running smoothly.

 

I can drop a video if you want.

I did! I followed what's on the instructions. Really strange.

 

I also watched YouTube videos on how to configure ID8 and TeknoParrot before playing the game. Still having the same issue.

IPFS links are not available 24/7

 

Scroll down to ID8, try the mega://enc2 links with megadownloader 

No idea if those links are still active

But why did it take forever to load this game? The screen stuck here, no graphical movement after all.

I finally noticed something from the files I had from the Userprofiles directory inside Teknoparrot main directory. For the WMMT5 profile, it says that it supports 64 bit, and works fine (except when hard drive has less than 10 percent space, which slows down). For the ID8 profile, it says that it supports only 32 bit systems. Heck that I have a 64 bit computer and this doesn't toggle, so I edited the file. When I run the game from Teknoparrot again, now it says that Picodaemon and either the main executable files InitialD8_GLW_RE_SBZZ_redumped_ or InitialD8_GLW_RE_SBZZ_dumped_ crashed.

 

Looks like I almost got the culprit, because whenever I run MSI Afterburner with RivaTuner Statistics Server everytime for WMMT5, the system allows to run the game without memory limits, but for ID8 (and even ID7) , it causes bottlenecks whenever I start the game. The bottlenecks or crash(?) start when I load the game, at 3900MB or more and then hangs, just like the picture above.

 

Are there any updated separate files like Picodaemon, OpenParrotLoader or OpenParrotLoader64 out there, so that I can look for fixes and check them out? Looked for them but nothing can be obtained by stupid Google. Done with my DYOR. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

 

BTW, I also tried to do allow files to run by Windows Defender and allow restrictions by Windows Firewall, like Picodaemon, OpenParrotLoader and OpenParrotLoader64, but still getting the same issue.
